Switching to the infrared camera FLIR Quark 2/640 is instantly performed remotely by the drone pilot or the operator of the camera, and allows to combines HD color vision to thermal in a swiveling 360° gimbal.

The 8X digital zoom of the thermal camera and the choice of colors (allowing to better highlight the temperature differences) are both remotely controlled from the ground.

Images can be stored on-board, on the drone, for later analysis and are re-transmitted to the ground in real time and without latency.

Stabilized gimbal for a better UAV monitoring

The gyrostabilization of the gimbal, combined with the smoothness and regularity of the drone’s flight, allow getting images and footage that are stable enough for monitoring, even at full zoom.

The gimbal maintains its orientation and inclination, no matter what the movements of the aircraft are. The navigation and maneuvers of the drone do not disturb the observer’s task.

Launching the navigation is easy via the radio-control, so using a computer or a tablet on the field is not necessary and the UAV is in the air within a few minutes.

Several navigation flight plans can be prerecorded in the memory of the drone, in order to be selected via the remote control in the field of operations, before or during the flight.

Drone observes autonomously with Position Hold and Altitude Hold

The Position Hold, combined to the Altitude Hold are activated by the pilot and make possible to instantly place and lock the drone on a 3-dimension position in the air.

The drone’s pilot or the gimbal’s operator can then control the cameras as required and with high precision, while the UAV is stabilized on a position which can be changed at any time during the observation flight.

The drone will move automatically to the new position and will remain there until a further action of the pilot.
